September in the Rain

T1173057570
Jack and Liz are in Blackpool for one last time. John Godber's classic play tells the touching and humorous story of a marriage through a lifetime of annual September holidays together. Loosely based on Godber's own Yorkshire grandparents, September in the Rain is a nostalgic wander down the rain-sodden streets and beaches of Blackpool in its heyday as Jack and Liz guide us gently back through their various September holidays spent in the famous British resort : the cramped boarding houses, sitting on the beach with trousers rolled up and socks pulled up even further, and of course climbing the famous Blackpool tower.

Sharon (23Nov13): Fantastic Play! My boys aged 13 and 10 loved it. John Thomson and Claire Sweeney are wonderful in it. We met them afterwards they were so warm and friendly. Can't recommend this play enough!
